Well, my hearing is not that well but that is either a lifter ticking or spark jumping somewhere. Remove the oil cap and listen under there. |

95-97 4 cylinders have rocker arm problems--they get worn to one side. Sounds like this is a possibility |

Sometimes a belt will shred and a piece of belt will go around and slap something but since it starts and stops like it does, I dont think thats what it is. Take a insulated screwdriver and move the plug wires around and see if you find one that is jumping fire. |

Either buy a factory service manual or go here http://www.autozone.com/autozone/myzone/profile/membershipBenefits.jsp and make a user name and password, log in and go to repair guides and put your vehicle in. |
